Fifty shots to 25.. without Oettinger this series would have been over last week
Reffin' was slightly better this time, but I still think they should be teaching seeing-eye dogs how to skate.
Meeko? Who dat?
Avs need to practice on slush to prep for the American Airlines lightly chilled pool.
This series is classic Dallas Stars Colorado Avalanche hockey
You didn’t force anything the Stars and the refs gave you this game!
Hey Blackwell had 2 game winners in this series. One for the stars and one for the avs 😂
33:30
They mean dallas scoring the GWG against themselves I'm pretty sure
The captain will get the series winning goal!
Wyatt Johnson -5, Jamie Benn -3, because they got matched up with the Avs 2nd line. At Dallas, that goes away. How the Avs handle that will decide the game.
As an outspoken proponent of “now that sports gambling is legal everything is rigged” I’m glad to celebrate our game 7 victory. Pete deboer is 8-0 career in game 7. Avs have lost 6 game 7s in a row. Dallas at home. “Smart” money will be on Dallas to win. But smart people know that the house always wins. Avs take game 7 4-2 book it dano
At 4-4 I left to work and started playing the offspring looking for #1 and in 10 second i did not had to look anymore. It was 5-4 and smile in my face. Soundtrack for today was the offspring-supercharged album which was nonstop in my ears today 🙂
Only better skater than Necas last night was Lehky
I would change to Wedgwood for the next game… I think Blackwood needs to rest one game
Im with Shaggy on groaning when we get a powerplay. It feels like an interruption to the Avs flow and they just go to passing endlessly
Thank everything for ice hockey. It is literally one of the only loves I have left in this hate-filled world. The United States is basically on the brink of Civil War pt 2, entire rest of the world is either at war or gearing up for war, but thank god I've still got hockey. I'm pretty sure if ice hockey didn't exist I would have probably mentally snapped by this point.
this game was heart attack sauce :/ , game 7 is gonna be heart attack nacho lol come on boys #LFG
glad necas finally scored but to me hes still not skating at all , still seems like hes playing rec out there he can step it up wayyy more on the effort and the speed ,like to see him shoot more to hes passed away alot of grad A shot chances ,he has the snipe he needs to use it
Get over 30 SOG. Avs is 7.
AIT BOYS gotta show up in Dallas!!!!
Do you think the NHL will punish the Stars after the Stanley Cup. I cannot see anyway that Bischel could possibly pass concussion protocol. Don’t get me wrong I’m glad he came back and what I like about hockey over the other sports is how these guys play through injuries during the playoffs, but leagues and the public take concussion issues differently. If they do punish them I hope it’s just a fine and not anything more
You guys are legends AVS WIN BABY This series is going the distance GO AVS
Are you doing another crossover with Joey from Locked On Stars?
33:30 I believe she was saying they scored the game winning goal on themselves, which it just beautiful!
